The command-line interface (CLI) means interacting with the router system where the user issues command to the router system in the form of command lines.

Secure Shell (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol to access the router’s command-line interface. The EZR34-012 router offers various ways to access the command-line interface.

1 Web Terminal

After accessing the router, go to "System > Terminal."

Input the default username root and the router password. You will then receive the welcome message on the web terminal interface.
